"Your Majesty?" The servant guarding the door waved at the passing guard, and he immediately pushed the door open and saw the horrific scene.

Acting King Zangwill's neck was spurted with blood, already soaked in the bed. But strangely, the king did not reach out to cover the bleeding throat,

The servant immediately stepped forward, and at the same time took out a piece of paper with a special spell drawn from his bosom and tore it to shreds.

"What's going on!?" There was a hazy sound in the helmet, and the guard, who was one step behind the servant, entered, and saw the servant press his hand against the wound of the acting king.

But it was too late.

"Your Majesty's neck... It's been penetrated—" said the servant, his lips trembling, turning back.

No wonder the king was unconscious, as if it were an unstoppable blade, piercing his cervical vertebrae, killing him in a very short time.

Walking outside, the shadow of the castle just left the castle, and felt a burst of heat in the pocket of the jacket.

He took out the contents of the papers, which were several pieces of paper with different colors of spell seals, and the red one was half burned, indicating that the most urgent event had occurred in the palace.

The shadow immediately stopped, half in the shade of a tree on the outskirts of the city, and then he turned and jumped each black shadow in the direction of the city.

In addition to the shadows, most of the mages and guards in the King's Castle with good combat effectiveness carry spell printing paper with them, so that they can feel the burning close to their bodies.

Together, the crowd gathered at the king's bedchamber - a priority.

But there was one exception, ten court mages, who together unleashed a magic spell before going to the king's bedchamber, a huge golden cross, and silently surrounded the king's castle...

Xia Zuo stopped in the open space of the castle where people came and went, and looked around at the towers, he was sure that this was the same as Zeber's royal palace, and there was a building where magic scrolls or magic books were stored, since there was no other choice to solve the king, then taking advantage of the current chaos, he could go and look for it by the way.

There is no white tower here, based on past experience, Xia Zuo chose the one closest to the magic institution, and when only one of the guards was left, and the other three rushed to the king's location with the panicked crowd, Xia Zuo saw the right time to go around behind him.

With a creak, the door was pushed open.

The guard looked back, only to find the half-hidden door, empty.

Is it not closed? He rubbed his head across his helmet, looked around and saw nothing unusual, shrugged and closed the door.

He didn't have to worry about anything, because there were more than a dozen magicians in the tower, and this was the tower of magicians, which was the safest place in the castle, and no enemy dared to approach it easily, so it seemed that guarding it was completely superfluous.

In the blink of an eye, Xia Zuo had already climbed to the top from the staircase on the first floor of the tower, and he was about to reach the highest point. If he can make continuous turns at high speeds, he doesn't have to stop immediately, but looks at the straight end of a flight of stairs and rushes over, and "Auto Dodge" will help him stop.

The reason why he ran to the top floor without hesitation was not because he was sure that the room where the magic documents were stored was at the top, but because the faintly shining golden light above caught his attention, and as he approached, the light became more and more conspicuous, and for extreme speed, there was not much difference between the top floor and the first floor.

Eventually, Xia Zuo managed to stop in front of a huge room on the top floor, the light coming from the inside, and the four walls of the room were windows to the outside world, especially on the top floor, where the view of the castle walls was in full view.

When he stepped into the room, he saw a golden circle extending to his feet, and when he looked up, ten magicians held hands in a circle, chanting incantations in their mouths, not noticing the half-crouched intruder. Each time a paragraph is recited in its entirety, the circle on the soles of the feet will be filled with new cross circle strokes like an unfolding fan.

Xia Zuo noticed that the magic circle was like a map of the castle - the castle.

Just after the last spell was recited, Xia Zuo stood up in surprise and looked out of the window, sure enough, the palace was surrounded by a wall composed of golden huge crosses, and the gap between the cross and the cross was also made up by a layer of translucent magic wall, and the top of the cross of tens of meters was a hemispherical magic dome, and the palace had become a space that no flies could enter.

"What man!?" Just as Xia Zuo stood up and started walking, one or two of the magicians suddenly noticed him.

"Someone!? When did you come in!? ”

"Take him down!"

Some mages raised their staffs, closed the door to the room, and placed a seal on the surface of the door, adding the option to kill the intruder alive.

"I recognize this magic wall..."Xia Zuo shook his eyes from side to side, "The magic wall must be killed to remove the "Beacon". Conditional magic, which can't even break down walls directly. ”

"You seem to be very good?" A magician said with a smile, aiming the ball of flame accumulated at the front of the staff at Xia Zuo, "Are you the one who caused this panic?" Or are you one of the saboteurs? ”

"There's not much magic in it, and I didn't even notice it just now." Said the other magician.

"How much ability does it take to cause the release of the red alert in the palace?" The mage unfolded the half-charred paper in his hand and looked at it again to make sure it was correct, "Could it be that the sender made a mistake?" If you get this kind of thing wrong, it's a capital offense. ”

"Which of you is the Beacon!" Xia Zuo turned around and asked them unceremoniously, because Xia Zuo had already decided that he must not be trapped, and the cage was a great restraint for his automatic evasion, which meant death, and he must quickly pull out the "Beacon" and deal with the current predicament, "You are the spellcaster, and one of them is the "Beacon", stand up quickly, take the initiative to lift the magic wall, and I will let him go." ”

Hearing this, the ten magicians laughed one after another, and they couldn't stop for a while. Seeing that this stranger seemed to have mistaken the situation, it was now ten court mages surrounding him.

"It will be lifted, as long as you are crippled, and then dragged into the prison by the guards, and figure out the purpose of your break-in, or it won't be long before you leave the palace in a cage car and be sent to the execution ground." One of the magicians said that the staff's accumulated ice picks were aimed at Natsuzuo's knees, intending to maim them without taking their lives.

“... I can tell you now," Xia Zuo calmed down and took a deep breath, although he was trapped, he was not in a desperate situation, and he saw that the negotiations were fruitless..."I killed the king, so what kind of red signal did you say, did you guess it should be the most urgent event?" The execution of the usurping king for the real princess must be an event of this magnitude. ”

"What!?" Everyone was shocked, "... You're lying! ”

"Just check it out, in the King's bedroom, where he just slept." Xia Zuo added.

The mage at the head shouted angrily, "Kill him, the guy who speaks wildly!" ”

All the staffs aimed at the non-lethal parts turned towards Xia Zuo's head.

Xia Zuo felt that he couldn't ask for it, and slightly bent the corners of his mouth.

Suddenly, a large hole was pierced through the wall on this side of the tower, and dust and gunpowder smoke were filled, but there was no Xia Zuo's body there.

Xia Zuo was already standing behind the man at the end of the ten mages, and he was putting his sword back into its sheath.

Blood poured out from the eyebrows of the ten men at the same time, and a mist of blood filled the air, and all the mages fell to the ground like broken marionettes.
